An important sub-group of compounds belonging to the series represented by Formula 111 are those in which R; represents a methoxy or an ethoxy group.
The new compounds of Formula I can be used as pesticides together with one or more of the following additives: a carrier, a solvent, a diluent, a dispersing agent, an emulsifying agent, a thickening agent, an adhesive, a wetting agent and/or a fertilizer and, if necessary, a known pesticide or a bait.
The advantage of the new compounds, in addition to their broad-spectrum action in combating various plant and animal pests, is their stability towards alkalis, which makes them eminently suitable for use in cattle dips, for example, for the control of ectoparasites, for application in rice fields and, in general, for application in soil, for example, for the control of soil-dwelling insects, acarids and nematodes and for the control of certain bacteria, fungi and weeds.
The animal pests include, in particular, insects and members of the order acarina, for example, mites and ticks, including the different stages of metamorhposis, that is to say, eggs, larvae, nymphs and pupae.
The compounds of Formula I can be used, for example, against all harmful insects, for example, aphides, for example, the potato aphid (Myzus persicae) and the black 'bean aphid (Doralis fabae); shield lice, for example, Aspidz'otus hederae, Lecanz'um hesperidium and Pseudococcus maritimus; thysanoptera, for example, Herc-inothrips feroralis, and bugs, for example, the beet leaf bug (Piesma quadrant) and the bedbug (Cimex lectularius), butterfly larvae, for example, Plutella maculipennis and Lymantria dispar; beetles, for example, corn weevils (Sitophilus granarz'us) and Colorado beetles (Leptinotarsa decemlineara), and also the soil-dwelling larvae, for example, wire worms (Agriotes sp.) and cockchafer larvae (Melolontha melolontha); cockroaches, for example, the German cockroach (Blattella germanica); the cricket (Gryllus domestz'cus); termites, for example, Reticulitermes; hymenoptera, for example, ants; lepidoptera, for example,-.Chilo supprssalis; diptara, for example, the fru t fly Drosophilia melanogaster, the Mediterranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata, the housefly (Musca domestica) and gnats, for example, Aedes aegypti and Anopheles stephensi.
The compounds of Formula I are also specially efficient at controlling members of the order acarina, for example, Eulaelaps, Echinolaelaps, Laelaps, Haemoganmasus, Dermanyssus, Ornithonyssus, Allodermanyssus, especially Allodermanyssussanguineus, Pneumonyssus, Amblyornma, Aponomma, Boophilus, Dermancentor, Haemophysalis, Hyalomma, Ixodes, Margaropus, Rhipicephalus, Ornithodirus; Otobius, Chelyletidae, for example, Cheyletus, Psorergates, Demodicidae, Trombiculidae, for example, Trombicula, Eutrombicula, Schiingastia, Acomatacnrus, Neoschongastia, Euschongastia, Sarcoptiformes, for example, Notoedres, Sarcoptes, Knemidokoptes, Psoroptidae, for example, Psoroptes, Choripotes, Octodectes or Tetranychidae, for example, T etranychus telarius; T etranychus urticae.
Nematodes that may be mentioned, particularly phytopathogenic nematodes, are those belonging to the following orders:
Aphelenchoides, for example, A phelench as ritzemabosi, Aphelenckus fragariae, Apkelenchus oryzae, Ditylenchoides, for example, Dizylenchus dipsaci, melidogynes, for example, Meloidogyne arenarz'a, Meloidogyne incognira, cyst-forming neatodes (heterodera), for example, Heterodera rostochiensis, Heterodera schachtii, and also root nematodes, for example, Paratylenchus, Rotylenchus, Xiphinema and Rhadopholus.
Pesticidal preparations, generally containing 0.1 to 95 percent by weight, preferably 1 to 85 percent by weight, of the new compounds of Formula I (or Formula II or III) can be made up in a wide variety of forms, for example, in the form of dry moist preparations or as liquids or solids. Shaped carriers such as fiy-dishes, flypapers, paper strips or granules can be impregnated with the active principles. The active principles can also be transformed into a gas phase by means of sprays.
However, they can also be used in almost pure form without additives when applied from spraying devices producing a fine enough spray. The main means of application of this kind would be spraying from aircraft.
The solvents used in the preparation of solutions of compounds of Formula I that can be used directly as sprays are, for example, mineral oil fractions having a high to medium boiling range, for example, Diesel oil or kerosene, coal-tar oil and oils of vegetable or animal origin, as well as hydrocarbons, for example, alkylated napthalenes, tetrahydronaphthalene, if necessary, in conjunction with xylene mixtures, cyclohexanols and ketones, and also chlorinated hydrocarbons, for example, trichloroetha e, t ichlcwethy c e or triand t t a-chlqmhenzcnes- 4 It is advantageous to use organic solvents having a boiling point above C.
The aqueous preparations are advantageously prepared by the addition of water to emulsion concentrates, pastes or wettable powders. Suitable emulsifying or dispersing agents are non-ionic products, for example, condensation products of aliphatic alcohols, amines or carboxylic acids having a long-chain hydrocarbon radical containing about 10 to 20 carbon atoms and ethylene oxide, for example, the condensation product of octadecyl alcohol and 25 to 39 mols of ethylene oxide, or the condensation product of commercial oleylamine and 15 mols of ethylene oxide or the condensation product of dodecylmercaptan and 12 mols of ethylene oxide. The following are examples of suitable anionic emulsifying agents: the sodium salt of dodecyl alcohol sulphuric acid ester, the sodium salt of dodecylbenzenesulphonic acid, the potassium or triethanolamine salt of oleic acid or abietic acid or mixtures of these acids, or the sodium salt of a petroleum sulphonic acid. Suitable cationic dispersing agents are quaternary ammonium compounds, for example, cetylpyridinium bromide or dihydroxyethylbenzyldodecylammonium chloride.
Dusting and strewing preparations can be prepared by using solid carriers, for example, talcum, kaolin, bentonite, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, and also charcoal, cork meal, wood flour and other materials of vegetable origin. It is also highly advantageous to make preparations in granular form. The preparations in their various forms can also be provided with substances that improve dispersion, adhesion, rain-resistance and penetration; substances of this kind are, for example, fatty acids, resins, glues, casein or alginates.
The compounds of the invention can be used either alone or together with known pesticides, especially insecticides, acaricides, nematicides, bactericides, fungicides, and so forth.
The action of the phosphorus compounds of the invention can be enhanced by synergists. Suitable substances are, for example, sesamin, sesamex, piperonyl cyclonenes, piperonyl butoxide, piperonal -bis[2 (Z-butoxyethoxy) ethyHacetate. sulphoxides, propyl isomers, N-(Z-ethylhexyl) 5 norbornene 2,3 dicarboxamide, octachlorodipropylether, Z-nitrophenylpropargylether, 4-chloro-2- nitrophenylpropargylether and 2,4,5-trichlorophenylpropargylether.
Known insecticides, acaricides or nematicides can be added to broaden the spectrum of action ofthe compounds of the invention.
